I've been listening to recordings of the arias for the Queen of the Night from Mozart's The Magic Flute. Though the first aria is far less commonly known than the second one, the moment at 3:13 is amazing. The second aria is far more popular, but no more demanding.
Also, it's my birthday and junk.

Quick update
So. Gondoliers. It's going! After getting a very poor start myself, I've become the leader of the pack of sorts of the men in the chorus. Which is kind of sad, considering the level of work I've done. Oh well -_-
Life is all right, though sodexo (the company that employs me at the dining hall) has been giving me scheduling conflicts left and right. I have to sacrifice a bunch of time that I would spend with dear friends who are visiting this weekend, but I get to work 8 hours on saturday. Wonderful.
But! On the plus side, I'm driving up to chicago tomorrow to spend the day in the Art Institute with an art major friend of mine, Theresa. She's a real artist's artist, and I want her to help me try to get the full experience.
Also, I have a new musical obsession: Jay Brannan. Listen and enjoy.
Smooches!
